Description

 

If you are looking for a skeleton in a particularly practical size, which is at once small, breathtaking, detailed and sold at an attractive price, we highly recommend this model. It is also popular with our customers.


The mini skeleton measures 85 cm in height. The quality of the bone casts is good and suitably solid for general. use. The level of detail on the bones is impressive compared to the standard within mini skeletons. Most joints are held together by metal and/ plastic. Shoulder and hip joints, on the other hand, are fitted with elastics, which allows demonstration of the joints' natural movements.


This version of the mini skeleton model comes with spinal nerves, a visible herniated disc in the lower back and the ability to bend the spine.


NB: This version of the mini skeleton model is delivered hanging on a white metal stand (via a hook in the skull). This means that the skeleton can be taken down from the stand and used for a wide range of demonstrations on, for example, balls, in a lying position or on a chair/cardboard box (as shown in one of the pictures on the left).

 

Recommendation from Trine Rosenberg, Rosenberg Institute

"For some time I have had the new skeleton from eAnatomi on trial, and my conclusion is that I can recommend this 85 cm high skeleton .

Anatomically, it is lifelike. In particular, the spinal nerves and disc herniation on the skeleton make it easier to explain the damage that can be caused to the nerves, partly by scoliosis (S-shaped) and partly by too much sway.

Because the skeleton has a flexible spine , it is much easier to explain to the client how the above-mentioned injuries can affect the nerves and cause pain in the back, head, neck, legs and arms. On several of the courses at the KST Academy (including the course "Straight back and neck"), different techniques are reviewed in the teaching.

The connection between injury, cause and symptom becomes more visible, and makes it easier for the therapists to explain the situation to the clients.

The best greetings

Trine Rosenberg, teacher and head of the KST Academy, Silkeborg".

 

Anatomically speaking

Anatomically, the model shows all the bones of the body. Cartilage in the chest and teeth in the upper and lower jaw are also included.



Compared to the standard within mini skeletons, the level of detail on the bones is impressively beautiful. The scope of "osseous landmarks" includes both large details such as the tuberculum majus and minus, as well as more specific details such as the linea aspera on the back of the femur (see images on the left).



On the other hand, the degree of detail is significantly lower on small bones and in small joints. For example, both carpal, metacarpal and finger bones are cast in one piece. The same applies to the feet (see the pictures on the left).



On this version of the mini skeleton model, the spinal nerves are inserted in yellow. Furthermore, a herniated disc can be seen in red at the symphysis (the disc/disc) between L3 and L4 (3rd and 4th lumbar vertebra).

Movement-wise

In terms of movement, the model is particularly flexible in the shoulder and hip joints, which is unusual for mini skeletons and other skeletons in this low price range. In other joints, the possibilities of movement are limited because the joints are held together by metal and/ plastic. For example, rotation in the knee joints cannot be demonstrated, although both flexion and extension (bending and stretching) are possible.



As mentioned in the description of the anatomy, the hands and feet are each molded in one piece. Therefore, it is not at all possible to move any of the many joints in these regions.



The shoulder joint is held together by an elastic band. All natural movements in the joint can be demonstrated, but not to the full extent due to the length of the elastic. For example, the arm cannot be lifted completely into the air (the arm can only be abducted 90 degrees, which corresponds to "shoulder height").



The hip joint is also held together by an elastic band. Unlike the shoulder joint, all natural movements can be demonstrated in full. Furthermore, the femoral head can be easily and quickly removed completely.



On this flexible version of the mini skeleton model, the spine can also be bent slightly - but only at the lower back. The skeleton can therefore be used to demonstrate flexion and extension as well as lateral flexion in the lower back.

Clinically speaking

Clinically speaking, the skeletal model is ideal for understanding many diseases, disorders and genes in the skeleton.
